Friend of Trust for Public Land,
Join us on February 27 at noon (PST) for an exploration into the power of outdoor spaces and their impact on Black communities, culture, and the arts.
I'll be moderating a Black History Month Park Bench Chat that brings together an esteemed panel of speakers, each providing a unique perspective on how these spaces can be transformative for communities. |
esperanza spalding: Grammy Award-winning artist and founder of PRISMID, a BIPOC sanctuary and restorative arts lab serving musicians, artists, and cultural workers.
Angelou Ezeilo: author of Engage, Connect, Protect: Empowering Diverse Youth as Environmental Leaders and founder of the Greening Youth Foundation, known for connecting HBCU students to careers in public lands and conservation.
Maya Rodgers: associate director of special projects for San Francisco Parks Alliance and advocate from San Francisco’s Bayview-Hunters Point community, who will discuss the local impact of projects such as India Basin. |

Together we'll explore the profound impact that outdoor spaces have on cultural identity, community resilience, and artistic expression—and in enriching and empowering Black communities. Don’t miss the opportunity to be part of this vibrant discussion! |
